Tips for Visiting the Czech Republic
- Explore Beyond Prague: While Prague is a beautiful place, don’t miss out on other cities if you are staying for a few days. Consider visiting Český Krumlov, Karlovy Vary, Kutná Hora, and Brno. They offer unique historical and cultural experiences.
- Use Public Transportation: The Czech Republic has an excellent public transportation system, including trams, buses, and trains. Consider our Prague Visitor Pass which includes access to multiple venues as well as use of the public transport system.
- Learn Basic Czech Phrases: Though many locals speak English, especially in tourist areas, knowing phrases like “Dobrý den” (hello) or “Děkuji” (thank you) can go a long way. Locals do appreciate it when you make an effort to try and speak their language. Even if it is only a few words.
- Try Czech Cuisine: Sample traditional dishes like svíčková (marinated beef with cream sauce), goulash, and trdelník (chimney cake) and we suggest you don’t miss the hearty soups and dumplings!
- Taste the Beer: The Czech Republic is famous for its beer, and it’s often cheaper than water! Try local brews like Pilsner Urquell, Budweiser Budvar, and craft beers in microbreweries.
- Bring Cash: Although card payments are common, some smaller restaurants and shops may only accept cash. The currency is the Czech koruna (CZK), so we suggest always carrying some cash.
- Be Aware of Tourist Traps: Avoid overpriced restaurants in the main tourist areas. Venture a bit further from landmarks for more authentic and affordable experiences!
- Respect Local Customs: In restaurants, wait to be seated rather than choosing a table yourself. It’s also customary to tip around 10% in restaurants.
- Visit Castles and Chateaux: The Czech Republic has over 2,000 castles and chateaux, including Karlštejn Castle, Hluboká Castle, and Lednice Chateau and many of them have fascinating histories and amazing architecture!
- Plan for All Seasons: The weather varies greatly by season. Spring (April–June) and autumn (September–October) offer pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds. Winter is magical, especially during Christmas markets, but it can be cold.
